    Some times we take for granted the little things that we pick up over the years. I was talking with a fellow operator about mixing solutions of the 101. I remember when it came in the small bottles and we had to mix it into our own gallon jug. This was always no fun. Once we started to receive it in the gallon jugs it made my life a lot easier. What I do is take the lid off and lay it down in our microwave for 2 min. We put the lid back on and shake it up then add cold water with a cut off hose, shake a few times and done. We are able to mix it with no blocks of white paste on the bottom, and with the hose in the bottle we get no foam, while filling it up to the very top. Our power was out a few months back for two days and we had to mix it with just the hose and a whole lot of shaking and rolling. Boy was I glad when the power came back on the next day.

    Great tip. Never tried nuking it but I will now. Hose in bottle is a great idea as well to limit foam.
